Thank you for the feedback! I had good use of that myself when developing it.

Not sure, but they where developed in parallell by different developers so they went in
different directions. Personally I do like the httpcon idea that enabled this failover in a
nice way. I took the idea from another module :-)

Another solution is to run the HTTP Client in a background process asynchronously.
